नि षु सीद गणपते गणेषु त्वाम् आहुर् विप्रतमं कवीनाम् । न ऋते त्वत् क्रियते किं चनारे महाम् अर्कम् मघवञ् चित्रम् अर्च ॥
ni ṣu sīda gaṇapate gaṇeṣu tvām āhur vipratamaṃ kavīnām | na ṛte tvat kriyate kiṃ canāre mahām arkam maghavañ citram arca ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Lord of the hosts, amid our bands be seated: they call thee greatest Sage among the sages. Nothing is done, even far away, without thee: great, wondrous, Maghavan, is the hymn I sing thee.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
